Best Date Night Restaurants in Upper Arlington

I have been in Columbus a long time and made a point to visit each new Cameron Mitchell establishment as they pop up and Butcher & Rose did not disappoint! I took my best friend, a steak connoisseur, for her birthday and everyone helped make our evening a truly special celebration. The food and drinks were OUTSTANDING. To date, the best I've ever had from ANY of the CM family, and the very best steak and roasted chicken we've ever ordered in Columbus. Not to be out done by the food, the service was also the very best we've experienced anywhere in the city! I am already making plans to come back with my family this holiday season!

Food was amazing as always, and the happy hour deals are the best! The server was kind and the kitchen staff were very careful and conscious of food allergies in our party. We’ll be back!

I had the pleasure of dining at The Avenue recently, and I can’t praise our server, Yusef, enough. From the moment we sat down, Yusef made us feel welcomed and truly valued. His attentiveness, knowledge of the menu, and thoughtful recommendations elevated our entire experience. He and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect — from the timing of each course to making sure our drinks were always topped off. Yusef’s genuine care and exceptional service turned an already great evening into something memorable. Highly recommend this restaurant and their fantastic team!

Our server, Jeffro, was AMAZING!!! He was engaging, friendly and made my daughter's birthday very special (he even carded her when she ordered a drink since she was turning 21). He also worked with the kitchen to create a vegan meal for me (veggie stir fry... delicious!). He made connections with each of us in the short time we were there. I will only eat at Hudson 29 again if I can have him working with our table. Oh yeah, and the food was fabulous too.

Cap City is a great restaurant that consistently offers great food, great service, and great value for the items offered. We had the warm pretzel appetizer, which was delightful, and I had a bowl of clam chowder, which was excellent. Our server, Stephanie, was excellent. We had two of our grandchildren with us, and she gave them great attention and made them feel special. I can't wait to go back.
